Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP):2015: 0.535SNIP measures contextual citation impact by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field.

Impact per Publication (IPP): 0.512

Impact per Publication (IPP):2015: 0.512The Impact per Publication measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the three preceding years.

SCImago Journal Rank (SJR): 0.28

SCImago Journal Rank (SJR):2016: 0.28SJR is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same. SJR uses a similar algorithm as the Google page rank; it provides a quantitative and a qualitative measure of the journal’s impact.

Abstract

Objective: This study was done to optimize the production parameters involved in the isolation of hyaluronan (HA) from UV mutated a clinical strain of Klebsiella pneumonia (M 3020).

Methods: Glucose and nitrogen enriched media (D-glucose, L-glutamic acid, and peptone) were utilized to cultivate the clinical isolate K. pneumoniae. The strain was Ultra Violet (UV) radiation mutated (254 nm, 25 min) and HA production was optimized by parameters such as pH and temperature. The isolated HA from the fermented broth was subjected to purification by isopropyl alcohol and silica gel and further dried by lyophilization. Produced HA was confirmed with UV and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) spectroscopy.
